SMU had no business losing that Dixie Classic to West Virginia Wesleyan-still pisses me off

Who says we can't get an invite to the Pac 12.
We played against Stanford in a bitter rivalry game back in 1936.

Re: SMU Bowl History
It gets even better:
Check out the data provided by the official Rose Bowl Website:
http://www.tournamentofroses.com/TheRos ... ord-7.aspx
Interesting Notes from article:
Item #1
This Rose Bowl Game was certainly highly anticipated, if the ticket sales had anything to say about it. Organizers added 310 temporary seats to push the capacity to 84,784, which was gone in a week. An additional 200,000 requests were turned down, and Southern Methodist traveled 4,000. Although it was half the amount they wanted, the Texans had to add nine special trains to the schedule to accommodate the mass migration.
Item #2
Fun Fact
The 1936 game will go down in history as the beginning of the Rose Bowl Game sellout era that still exists today. All 84,784 seats were filled with a large portion of them occupied by fans who traveled from Texas to watch their Mustangs play.
Wow! Things were different.

1963 Sun Bowl: The Mustangs were 4-6 in an era when there were only six or seven bowls and we still nearly beat the Ducks.
